That's a similar ride that has been redesigned to be safer. The ride that severed the teen's feet looked like this one. Notice the long exposed cable that runs the full length of the ride on the right hand side that is supported only at the top and bottom.

Now this is the picture that I saw Saturday or Sunday. I noticed the cables running down the sides. Wild horses couldn’t drag me on to a ride like this.
I guess there are more riders on the other side of the pole behind these riders?

A cable must be flexible. To be flexible it must have the fewest points of contact. If this cable could have been effective with numerous points of contact then structural steel would have been used instead.

That is my understanding though I could be wrong.

I have been skydiving and it appears to both be more fun and safer than this ride.

It's been hard to find a picture of the actual ride because SFKK has taken them off their website. Here are a couple that I found before it was renamed Superman.
